I have had a MPX200 for about 2 years now and am thinking about replacing it. So do any of you have smart phones and if so which ones do you like? I want a phone with windows not a PDA with phone capabilities. I would love to get a MPX300, now just called the MPX, but not for about $1K. I almost upgraded to a MPX200 about a year ago but a friend did and has been through 3 of them because of problems. Any ideas?

I've got a Siemens SX66 from Cingular which kicks ass!
Phone, IE, Media Player, Outlook, Excel, Word, MP3s, Wavs, etc..etc...etc...

steve is that the one with blackberry service?

I currently have 2 phonelines one with a blackberry from cingular and one with a blackberry from nextel

i will be adding a 3rd line for a new little venture Im starting up and will be doing it with nextel. i dont htink i have room for another blackberry in my damn cup holders so i will be getting the motoroloa i930 which is a windows based smart phone

so newbie after my "taz length" post the point is the 1930 is a pretty bad ass windows based phone

stay away from the treo 650....i have never had a phone with more problems...hopefully the new windows based one will be better

Not yet a Taz length post but as with his, it was full of useful info. I have heard to stay away from the treo. Is the i930 a true smart phone and is it only for Nextel? If so, based on what I have seen, I think that is the one the GF has. I was with AT&T until the whole merger/buyout with Cingular and though I am not overly thrilled since Cingular took over I think I will probably stick with them unless the offer is incredible with someone else. Not knocking Nextel, but I refuse to go with them. I am sure they offer a great service but I am so Fing sick and tired of having to listen to that damn beep and other peoples conversations. Sorry, off the soap box now

That sounds like what I am looking for Steve. Do you know, are they still selling them? Have you been happy with it? Is it a tri mode phone? My MPX200 is only dual mode and the reception is poor, but livable, because of it. I will have to look into it some more. After going to a smart phone, not sure I could go back to a regular cell phone. I love being able to sync Outlook on the PC with the phone, having everything with me and I don't have to carry my iPAQ as well.

I see the SX66 is basically the size of a regular PDA. Does anyone know of a good smart phone that is not that big? One of the things I love about the MPX line is that it is the size of a regular cell phone. The MPX300 is cool because in opens either way and has a touch screen unlike the 200 and 220.

yes the 930 us nextel only.....it just came out last week....i think the new mpx might be your best shot....rumor has it the Lg has a hot new smart phone out too

Thanks for the link. I love their phone search. The 930 looks like a good option if I choose to switch to Nextel.
